What does the salt do to the beef? It seems like it would draw all the water out of the cut.

Don't know for sure. I think it's a poor man's dry-aging, drawing some of the water out of the meat, which gives it more flavor. All I know is, I like it.

Speaking of salt, some restaurants are now cooking pieces of meat in pans of super-heated rock salt. I've never tried that but it seems to be rather trendy now.
